Tasting Notes

Nose: A rich and robust bouquet immediately presents with sweet caramel and vanilla, intertwined with dried dark fruits like fig and raisin. Deeper inhalation reveals toasted oak, baking spices such as cinnamon and nutmeg, and a hint of leather and tobacco from its single barrel aging.

Palate: The entry is powerful yet surprisingly smooth for its proof, delivering an initial burst of sweet brown sugar, maple, and vanilla bean. This quickly transitions to a complex medley of dark chocolate, roasted nuts, and a pronounced spicy kick of black pepper and charred oak, with a backbone of ripe cherry and orange peel.

Finish: A long, lingering, and warming finish that coats the palate. Notes of bittersweet chocolate, espresso, and spicy oak persist, fading slowly into a satisfying dry warmth with echoes of leather and a final whisper of dark fruit sweetness. The high proof is well-integrated, providing a delightful Kentucky hug.
